Unleash the Elements: The Storm Team Building Thread

Running dat Storm/Skrull/Akuma

I think Magneto/Trish/Storm make a good team too.

what about magneto/storm/akuma? is it preferred to pick sentinel drones if you wanted to put magneto and storm on the same team?

Magneto/Storm/Akuma is fine. Akuma’s tatsu assist is better than Sentinel drones i think.

Hey guys, I was mess around with Cap (shield slash)/Iron Man (repulsar blast)/Storm(whirlwind)

I like the team so far, any suggestions?

it’s a good team. : )

Thanks! I still need to get Storms loops and flight stuff down. I’m not good with flight combos but I love storm and IM

do you always use repulsor spread after repulsor blast?

Nope. And sometimes only the spread will hit. It’s good to mix up your repulsor spreads or lack there of to keep the opponent guessing.

Works wonders if you call an assist

Alright. Cos repulsor spread is really good.

I would switch out Iron man for Task. Put him on anchor, rather then Storm. Cap can atleast build one bar and if you want to kill a character his Crossover combination with Storm is beautiful. Takes a nice chunk out of most and kills the rest. XF cancel after you’ve mashed through most the supper is a nice touch to.

  • edit -
    That’s just my observation. You don’t have to switch out Iron man neither do you have to put storm on second. I believe should would benefit better with an assist. Specially since Iron man can only function properly with specific assists.

I’ll try it just because I was hesitant on using task.

I appreciate the response haha and I’ll let you know how it works out. I was even thinking of Frank/DP/Storm

I’m good with her and ironman’s moment so awkward confirms I’m good with.

It’s harder to use Task than Iron Man at first but yeah, Task is a better character to use.

Hey all of you! I’m a Jill player and a C.Viper player and a seasoned MVC3 player, but I’ve never really played a character completely based on the air ( Besides the occassional Mags for combos and stuff, but that’s pretty much it). I would really like to know where to start with Storm since I’m creating a Jill/Storm/Strider team.

Basically…

  1. How do I move around quickly and effeciently? I know I need to use Tri-dashes, but what exactly am I supposed to be Tri-Dashing into combo-wise for the best hitconfirm?
  2. Is there a use to her Float?
  3. What are her normal Assistless BNB’s?

Thanks guys! I know most of this was covered before, But I’m running short on time.

Picked up storm again after some absence from the game, now running a Storm (Whirlwind) / Dante (Jam Session) / Wesker (OTG) team. I think it has some potential but I’m ass at this game, so what do i know.

I’ve been playing Captian-y/Storm-a/Vergil-B

Whirlwind is good for making charging star plenty safe for getting in, while charging star assist is an alright get off me with some pressure usage also. Captain can convert off of Vergil’s rising sun assist for 726k (935k dhc into hail) mid screen. Storm can get 567k off of rising sun converting into a fly combo ending in lightning attack -> lightning storm. I’m sure some one could figure out an air to ground confirm off of rising sun for much more damage and DHC ability.

Captain bnb into hail is 920k+ easy and you can get 802k going from Storm to Captain so long as the combo ends in the corner. With Storm/Vergil; a storm bnb dhc into sword strom can get 790k+ for two bars mid screen, and if you’re in the corner you can go into sword loops from hail if you have the bar to spend. Vergil bnb into storm hail, link to elemental rage gets about 920k for 3 bars. Either order of the two and you can break a million for 4 bars either through dhcing into sword loops from elemental rage mid screen or dhcing Sword Storm -> Hail [link] Elemental Rage -> Sword storm.

I feel like team has some good synergy with some good damage output in most compositions and easy confirms. First touch with captain at the start means a TOD against most of the cast, and can kill more characters with TAC Into storm. Plus, Vergil anchor is never a bad touch for a team.

Looking at Trish/Storm/Dante. Thoughts?

I had an interesting thing happen last night I thought id share. I was running mag morri doom. Lately I’ve been trying to play a much more air focused mag, basically attempting to jump, adu, fly, and then dash around thetop of the screen getting harmonizers and missiles out nice and safely.

In doing this, while fighting a much stronger opponent, I found this was working extremely effectively. Moreso than morridoom stuff even (tho it was xbl and all). So I was thinking to myself, if I were to focus on this strat, who could be a ‘2nd magneto’ to fly around keeping a steady stream of missiles out there?

Given that I’m typing this in the storm forum, you probably see where I’m going with this. But like with mag, it was working really well. sadly its been a while for me and ororo so my combos were just ABC, but if I can remind myself how to do her ‘real stuff,’ could this be a valid strategy?? I guess in sharing all this I wanted to accomplish 2 things:

  • just share the idea in case it could help anyone else on their stormy journies.

  • see if anyone has some missiles-storm experience, or has any fun tactical ideas I could try out with this squad.MSS is pretty rare, but I dunno if I’ve ever seen anyone run MSD. You guys think the team has some promise? And if so, any cool ideas I should try as I fly around pestering opponents? :slight_smile:

I’m just posting my stuff on Strange forums, I should be posting here too!
I’m currently running Storm/Dr Strange/Dr Doom, switching to point Strange depending on the matchup. You know, Storm/Strange isn’t something we see everyday, but they have lots of synergy. Dr Strange can fix Storm low damage with the Flames of the Faltine loop. He can start his loop after a lot of things Storm can do, like TAC, Hail Storm into Spell of Vishanti (you can dash and start the loop, in the corner), Elemental Rage + Missiles + DHC into Seven Rings of Raggadorr. Storm is the best character in terms of mobility, and Dr Strange one of the worst XD, so they really cover each other. Whirlwind assist also creates space for Strange and can also be used in a crossup with his godlike teleport. Storm on point looks weird but is working for me! Also sometimes I’m changing Doom for Hawkeye, the chip damage is insane.

How much invincibility does Storm DHC have? I’ve seen Spidey Crawler Assault in a beam hyper then DHC to Hailstorm, where she somehow flew through it all.
